Question

A leaky pool loses 2 and one-fourth inches of water each day. Jermaine and Mildred are asked to determine the change in the amount of water in the pool over 5 days.

Answer 1

I believe it is 11 1/4. Hope I'm right.

Explanation:

I multiplied 2*5=10

Then I multiplied 1/4*5= 1 1/4

Then I added 10+1 1/4=11 1/4
